Purpose and Description

The Belmont Heritage Commission was founded by citizens at the 2004 Town Meeting. Under New Hampshire law RSA 674:44-b (See: Documents) as a Land Use Board, we promote recognition, use and protection of the unique historic and cultural resources of Belmont, and also integrate preservation planning as a partnership with individuals, businesses, Town boards and other appropriate groups.
(Adopted by the Belmont Heritage Commission on January 13, 2005)
